Abstract

Recent progress in the calculation of the two-loop on-shell mass counterterms within the electroweak Standard Model (SM) for the massive particles are discussed. We are in progress of developing a package for full two-loop SM calculations of 2 -> 2 fermion processes, with emphasis on the analytical approach where feasible. The complete two-loop on-shell renormalization is implemented. Substantial progress has been made in calculating the master integrals. We are able to compute in an efficient and stable manner up to a few thousands of diagrams of very complex mass structure.
